Construction for Route 141 Improvement Project Will Require Closure of Faulkland Road
at Route 141 Intersection


Wilmington – The Department of Transportation (DelDOT) wants to alert motorists that effective Tuesday, August 12, the east end of Faulkland Road at the Route 141 intersection will be closed to traffic.

The Faulkland Road closure will occur Tuesday, August 12, at 6:00 p.m. and will reopen to traffic on Monday, August 18, at 6:00 a.m. The purpose of this closure is due to the reconstruction of the Route 141 and Faulkland Road intersection. There will be a lane shift along both northbound and southbound Route 141 for traffic heading west on Faulkland Road.

Traffic along Faulkland Road east of the closure wishing to access Route 141 will take Faulkland Road eastbound making a left onto DuPont Road South to Lancaster Pike and make a left onto Lancaster Pike to Route 141. Traffic wishing to travel eastbound onto Faulkland Road off Route 141 will take Lancaster Pike eastbound and turn right onto DuPont Road. Detour signs will be posted.

During this closure the ramp from Route 2 westbound onto Route 141

northbound will be reopened to provide an alternative detour route. Following the reopening of Faulkland Road, the ramp off Route 2 will again be closed.
